one of my birthday presents was a gift certficate to bag, borrower or steal. ooooh aaaaaah i started looking at handbags, all for me moahhhhhhhhhh! my computer mouse couldn't keep up with all the choices i was clicking on.one of my choices is the yves saint laurent 'sac palma' (picture below) well, i am not sure how i can justify a purse that costs about 1/2 a car payment! for a month of BORROWING ! even with a gift certificate, so i decided on another choice (the croco satchel below)ah, i will still have a little left over on my gift cert. for another reasonable choice!

those of you that 'know' me know that i much prefer to blog lighthearted nonsense than 'real' issues. but every so often...

i took this right off the governor's official site:

March 7, 2008 - Governor Spitzer in New York City announcing $5 million in grant funding for small businesses throughout Lower Manhattan with Speaker Sheldon Silver (far left), Councilman Alan Gerson (left), Congressman Jerrold Nadler (right) and Community Board 1 Chair Julie....

so i wonder if any of this funding went for funding the business of prostitution?? (*wink wink*)

any extra marital sex is really between the governor & his wife. breaking the law and being a hypocrite about it is between the governor and the people. plain and simple he broke the law. he is supposed to be for the people, an example for the people, not someone who thinks he can get away with breaking the law simply because of his position.

acaligurl & michael jordan turn four-five! yup same day same year. i always thought 45 was way off, but apparently its here. my best girls threw a surprise party for me last nite. since my birthday was last month i did not suspect a thing.

i received some cool books. i had just signed up for oprah book of the month club on line 'a new earth awakening to your life's purpose' so it was ironic one of the girls gave me the book!! now i'm all set for the club. the first webinar is coming up.

the white fur bag is pimpin' hilarious. its huge. i can see myself in the airport goin to' to vegas! i love it. and the leopard print top has major gold sparkly's, although it doesn't show in the pic. and well, the giraffe bag speaks for itself! so maybe you are figuring out i have a flashy side!! (& my friends know it!)
